The “LuxTrust fraud” network reveals its perpetrators 06.05.2026

Luxembourg authorities are escalating their investigation into the "LuxTrust fraud" network, moving from suspected organizers to individuals executing the scam. A 23-year-old Frenchman, arrested in France on April 27th and now in pre-trial detention in Luxembourg, is accused of playing a crucial "courier" role, directly visiting victims' homes to collect bank cards after they were tricked by phishing attacks imitating entities like the CNS, MyGuichet, and LuxTrust. This hybrid criminal model, blending online manipulation with physical execution, has led to over 700 complaints and exceeded €10 million in losses between 2024 and 2025. The charges encompass fraud, robbery, computer fraud, money laundering, and participation in a criminal organization, underscoring the operation's significant scale and cross-border nature.
